"Directly on the beach - The best thing about the campsite is the location right by the sea and the beach, especially at low tide. Good for walks with the dog. Surfing and beach sailing school is also nearby. The facilities of the campsite with a pool and an indoor pool are perfect. The sanitary facilities were always clean. We felt very comfortable there. We will be back.

"Wonderful camping - We went on a round trip through Normandy last year and came across this site by chance. It's not a problem to get a pitch in the low season. We were immediately impressed by the location. The sea almost spills into the site (exaggerated) but it really is only a few steps at high tide. The sandy bay is bigger and longer than you can see in the pictures. A paradise for dogs, although we were often alone. The pool and indoor pool were fine - as were the sanitary facilities. Bread roll service on the pitch. There is a large supermarket 4 km away. Walking distance along the beach to the next village about 30 minutes. There are 2 restaurants and a beach bar on the beach with delicious hamburgers. We liked it so much that we were there again quite spontaneously this year and it won't be the last time we've been there. By the way: they speak German!

"false promises and a nuclear power plant next door - When I reserved a pitch at the beginning of December 2021, I was informed that I could cancel at any time for no reason. The deposit of €100 would then also be refunded. Unfortunately, we then had to cancel our vacation 2 weeks before the start of the trip for personal reasons. However, we did not get the deposit back. Initially, the campsite said that this was only possible after a corona illness. After that, the campsite didn't reply to three more emails. After I wrote to the campsite again 2 weeks later, I got the same answer that there would be no deposit back. Our friends who went without us liked the campsite very much. However, we and our friends did not know that the Flamanville nuclear power plant was in the immediate vicinity of the campsite. They found this extremely disturbing. France's nuclear power plant is only a few kilometers (within sight) directly by the sea.

"Vacation as desired - Wonderful location right by the sea; endless beach; all staff nice and helpful; the whole site very well maintained and clean; the pitches large enough; despite low season / end of season the swimming pools open, children's playgrounds in operation (bouncy castle etc.). Endless opportunities to walk the dogs. Whether the lack of network / internet coverage is a disadvantage - a matter of taste, it didn't bother us. For sightseeing tours you have to drive a bit or look elsewhere in advance. If you want peace and quiet and relaxation and want to look around from time to time, you're in good hands here. When there is a lot going on (for us at the weekends) you still have your peace and quiet and are undisturbed (our pitch was right next to the stand crossing and yet we didn't have the feeling of unrest and noise).

"Peace and seclusion right by the sea - The campsite "Le Grande Large" is located approx. 3km from Les Pieux directly by the sea. Booking and contact easy online and in English. A very nice welcome on arrival, the reception staff speak English and sometimes German. The pitches were all very sandy and sometimes very uneven. Ours (101) was almost crooked and it was very difficult to align it. On our pitch there was a large tree with lots of roots that protruded deep into the pitch. Nice for the shade, but unfortunately we couldn't set up the caravan and tent as we wanted. Although you have to specify the dimensions of the caravan and tent when booking and it was clear that it would be too tight, we were not told anything about this when we booked. The site has a really well-maintained toilet block. It felt like the toilet block was cleaned every hour. Unfortunately, the number of toilets and showers was not really sufficient at peak times. In addition, toilets and showers are not separated from each other. You have to want the smell when showering. There are 3 pools (1 covered), a bar/snack bar and a tiny kiosk. There is also a bouncy castle, trampoline, 2 playgrounds, tennis court, volleyball court and soccer pitch. Everything is beautifully landscaped and you can see people working all day long. Everything is very well maintained, beautiful flowers everywhere, with great attention to detail. The beach is right behind the campsite. At low tide, the water is unusually far away, but the sea is always rushing and the sound is simply wonderful. There is a small daily program. Nothing wild. Sometimes sports games, sometimes a concert in the bar, etc. There are plenty of excursions, although you have to travel quite a few kilometers. Cherbourg is about 40km, the landing beaches Utah Beach and Omaha Beach about 50-60km. Mont St. Michel was unfortunately 160km, and simply too much for us in the heat. Shopping facilities about 3km uphill by car. Conclusion: the place was great and absolutely worth the money. We would come again at any time. We only noticed two real disadvantages: 1. the cell phone connection is really bad. To put it mildly, it sucks. Virtually non-existent in bad weather. Phone calls were almost impossible during our 14 days, but we always went up to the village. There was no LTE at all. You could receive wonderful WhatsApp messages on the hills by the playground, and that's where you'd usually meet young people 🤣 The operator knows about this and sells WiFi at absolutely extortionate prices in 2-hour vouchers, which is more than borderline. Almost criminal. With 5 stars, we honestly expected more contemporary behavior. 2. only the staff at reception spoke English. Unfortunately not in the bar/restaurant. So unfortunately we couldn't eat there because nobody understood us, a real shame. This shouldn't happen in tourism.

"TOP campsite in a prime location - We stayed at Les Pieux for 17 nights in July with two children and a folding caravan. The campsite is beautifully situated, right by the sea. The pitches, like the rest of the campsite, are very well maintained and large enough. The sanitary facilities are cleaned regularly and are always spotless. The staff are very friendly and always ready to help. The sandy beach and the crystal-clear Atlantic Ocean are perfect for swimming. The swimming pool on the campsite and the bar are also to be recommended. We will visit the campsite again next year.

Description

Profile

On the west coast of the Cotentin peninsula, in the dunes of Normandy, lies Le Grand Large campsite. You can camp here in the dunes with a wide sandy beach. The campsite exudes peace and quiet and has well-kept grassy …areas, separated by hedges. At the campsite, you can swim in an outdoor pool, a heated swimming pool with a sliding roof or a children's pool. The campsite is clearly laid out. Touring pitches, separated by hedges, are located on both sides of the paths. The pitches are all the same size. This fixed pattern not only ensures order, but also privacy and peace. There are fifty rental accommodations along the edge of the campsite. The swimming pools are located directly to the right of the entrance. This swimming paradise consists of three pools: an outdoor pool, a heated pool with a sliding roof and a children's pool. There are sun loungers for sunbathers along the edges. Next to it, you will find the large children's pool. The heated pool with a sliding roof is furthest from the entrance. You can also relax in the hot tub here. There is a small snack bar with a terrace next to the swimming pools. Every morning, you can pick up your fresh bread or pastries from an artisan bakery in town (in low season, you can order them in advance) or enjoy a breakfast served by us. Our grocery store, open every day, allows you to have basic food on hand without having to travel. Some toys such as balls, table tennis bats, etc. are also available for sale. Come by any time of the day and get ice cream that you can eat without moderation... The launderette with washing machines and dryers will make your life easier. The large toilet block is located at the front of the campsite. This building, which is partly brick and partly stone, has neatly arranged toilet facilities. Plants and flowers create a colourful atmosphere in the toilet block.
